What I Can Provide for You

As a busy professional working on multiple projects, it’s important to you to work with strategic content writing contractors or freelance journalists who can make your job easier. They should be both highly experienced and knowledgeable about what clients like you need. They should help you fill the skills gap many firms experience when it comes to content marketing writers by being a storyteller with overall content marketing strategy expertise.

Whether you are a commercial enterprise, marketing or editorial agency providing services to specific clients, or a media outlet or trade publication targeting savvy readers, you need a strategic content writer or journalist like me who is recognized by their clients for doing this work well.

I partner with your organization or publication as if I have as much stake in your achieving success with your content marketing or writing as you do. Indeed, I do. I am not successful if your content doesn’t reach the right audiences; if it doesn’t tell the stories you want to share while connecting with your audience the way they want.

My Content Writing Expertise Targets Specific Domains

Because the best writers don’t try to write for every business vertical or on every subject, I don’t either. I maintain domain expertise in the finance and legal industries and focus on topics within these much larger themes. It is to those I can bring my best efforts and most benefit your enterprises with excellent strategic content writing.

These are niches where I’m an established writer. I bring up to 20 years of writing experience to them as well as sustained passion and interest to projects involving them. They include:

Residential Real Estate: primary residence and investment real estate buying and selling as well as renovations.

Business Operations and Development: SMB marketing, customer service, taxes, business credit, legal and regulatory issues affecting SMBs as well as management and leadership.

I also write about HR, travel and some lifestyle content for select national media outlets and high growth and established content marketing platforms or full-service digital marketing agencies. While most of my writing is editorial content in which I use the same skills and writing strategies I do as a journalist, I do offer marketing copywriting services to the high-end hotel and vacation rental industry.

It takes more than strong writing to advance your content marketing goals. You will need other content elements to complement your editorial content. To meet your brand’s communications objectives, I can help you develop a strategy for creating those vital additional communications tools.

I can provide following corresponding solutions which, together with my strategic content writing, represent the most effective path to reaching your ultimate content marketing aims.

Publishing and Distributing High-Quality Content

As you already know, strategically developed (and distributed) editorial content can build awareness, drive traffic, and generate leads for your brand. I can help you develop or improve your core strategy for editorial content. Then, I will strategically write blog, website, white paper, case study and other content.

We would collaborate to integrate the content into your content marketing calendar to establish a consistent publishing schedule. Additionally, I would place similar focus and detail on assisting your marketing team in developing a unique distribution plan for each piece of content. We can work together to create the right combination of reach strategies depending on the purpose for the content, its audience, and your industry.

Help Developing Compelling Visual Content

This form of communications is central to engaging your audience and driving their interest in your brand. The right visual or graphic elements complement written content and increase the authority of, interest in and engagement with your marketing or editorial message. I would help you determine what visual elements would best enhance your written content and, if required, work with your design team to create that visual communications tool.

We would integrate that visual content into your content marketing strategy with the same focus on strategic distribution across the social web or offline as we do with its corresponding written content.

Enhancing Lead-Generation with Long-Form Content

High value, deep dive content is crucial to any effective content marketing plan. Your brand creates this informational material to educate or solve a critical problem for prospective clients. You provide this in-depth business tool—like a white paper, case study, e-book, email course or email newsletter—in exchange for their email address.

Once you got that email address, you would add that prospect to an ongoing a lead nurturing campaign and provide them additional content based on their needs. I can create this kind of content based on your content marketing plan requirements as well as additional content for your drip campaigns. We would determine the nature of the editorial content I would create based on your firm’s core competencies, preferences, and long-term goals and objectives.

Correlating Key Website Copy with Your Communications Objectives

Editorial content only succeeds when your website’s message corresponds to that content. I can evaluate all of your site copy and content to determine if it synchronizes with your overall content marketing strategy.

My evaluation can include all of your site’s content or the pages most fundamental to your immediate content marketing plans. Then, I can give clear suggestions on optimizing copy, content, layout, and branding for increased conversion tied to specific engagement or actions by site visitors.

Then, to achieve the measurable objectives you have developed, I can work with you to create or revise the following tools:

A unique content calendar to establish a foundation for producing, distributing, and regularly tracking the effectiveness of your content marketing efforts.

Data-driven, audience-building, engaging content based on my initial understanding or assessment of your company’s current target audience, audience size and engagement level and traffic patterns. We will establish benchmarks for each piece of editorial content and routinely track periodic performance.

Influencer and partner relationship-building strategies to target those people specifically for mutually beneficial purposes. Core to any robust editorial content distribution plan is developing these strong, lasting relationships with partners, influencers, and publications. We can work together to benefit their existing audiences with exceptional content experiences delivered by your brand. Doing that effectively will help your grow your brand with these audiences as well as your value to these influencers and partners.

My Mission is a Successful Collaboration

As you can see, I am not simply a content writer; I am an experienced communications consultant. My primary solution focuses on editorial content writing that integrates well into your content marketing plan. I provide related strategic services to ensure that happens. However, I don’t provide these solutions apart from my editorial content writing.

Regardless of the content types, you would engage me to write I work best with organizations pursuing a robust content marketing strategy or editorial plan. I can help you determine what article or content writing strategies to use to connect to, compel and convert your target audience into qualified leads or loyal readers. Then, because you’ll need additional compelling content to retain your new business or readership, I can help with that, too.

My primary objective is to provide you with high-value strategic content writing services. But, it’s important to know what I don’t offer, too. Then, we’ll both be aware of what to expect before having our consultation. Please review this information, especially if you’re a startup business or early-stage publication or blog.
